In my unfortunate experience, having evangelized Gitlab in my company from the days when they made money through support and subscriptions, as expensive as Gitlab already is, it will only get more expensive a few years later.

It's nice that they keep adding these features, but in reality, we have already integrated most of the functionality they've added well before they get around to buying the company making the features they want to add.

So the actual practical effect on us is that we simply have to pay additional costs for those features that we don't use (or pay in time and money to migrate to those new features, with no real benefit and a massive downside of further increasing dependence).
I miss the days when I romanticized cars the way you seem to do.

Your friends are lying through their teeth.

Do you honestly believe these people aren't motivated by profit, when they are clearly entering long positions with the intention of driving up GME's price? It's straight up doublespeak.
How did you get the case built ? 3D printer ?
Cuz Firefox was in such a strong position before Google came around, right.

Mozilla has never been a competitive company. They've always leaned heavily on the illusion of being a non-profit. They've always sold the "eat your vegetables" version of web browsing, without actually offering anything compelling over the competition. We're just expected to use Firefox because "it's made by not-Google".
Might be worth shooting DanG an email. If one particular someone is downvoting every one of your posts, that ought to show up loud and clear in the database. That kind of behavior is not something HN wants to allow, I would think.
You know, one would expect inflation to go up because of the aging population. Lots of people leave the work force and they start spending their retirement funds. That should be good for all those few youngsters. Somehow it is not. It will get really ugly once those youngsters enter their mid 30s and still have no job experience.
In contrast, the napkin estimate for the cost of a year's worth of HIV drugs (latest generation integrase inhibitors) was 20K as of around 2 years ago, for western countries. Dolutegravir became generic, but prices likely won't change dramatically (specifically in western countries).
> Over the last year or so, we moved from using hard drives to SSDs as boot drives. We have a little over 1,200 SSDs acting as boot drives today. We are validating the SMART and failure data we are collecting on these SSD boot drives. We’ll keep you posted if we have anything worth publishing.

Would love to see SSD stats like this in the future. Recently was talking to some friends about what SSD to buy. I personally really like my HP EX950 - one friend said he'd never buy HP hardware. He said he was getting an Intel - I said I had an early Intel SSD fail on me, and I don't think QLC is the best option, but it is a nice value play. For performance, I do like Samsung, though they are expensive. Another friend said he'd never buy a Samsung SSD, as he had a reliability issue, and found lots of similar stories when he was researching it.

Of course these are all anecdotes and they aren't useful in making an informed choice. I suspect most SSDs are reliable "enough" for most consumer use, and not nearly reliable enough for certain kinds of critical storage needs. But it would still be nice to see the big picture, and be able to factor that into your SSD purchase decisions.
It seems like podcasts support has also regressed. The past two weeks it is a roll of the dice whether my morning podcasts will be there for me while I'm getting ready for the day or if they won't show up until well into the afternoon when I no longer have any interest in listening to them.

There's no way to force a refresh either.

Gitlab only established a foothold thanks to free users, when Github did not have free private repos. Free users sooner or later upgrade to paid plans, when they really want this or that feature.

Gitlab in many ways stays relevant by being “the nicer github” - if they become all about the money, they’ll die like bitbucket.
One thing that could be driving this is the rise of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing in the UK, and across the EU, due to regulatory changes.

Lots of ways, unfortunately. But generally a quality network will be built to have physical redundancy. Yet, the ISP game at the top is all about cost cutting. So we'll never get what we paid for back in the 90s.

This attitude is what continues to kill us as a nation. "Everything is fine! remember this!" but if you look deeper most of it is not true. Things are not well for this nation. The capitol was just stormed.

Those statistics are easily gamed. For one, salaries aren't that high in the cheap COL areas and there aren't any jobs or room for advancement in Tusla. Sorry, that's just the facts. There are plenty of shitty places to live for cheap. But there is no hope of ever advancing or growing yourself - which is extremely important for a nation - advancement.

> and there are still plenty of single women who aren't spending all their time looking for someone a little bit snazzier on Tinder.

This is irrelevant- less people are partnering up and less people are having sex. Single women exist - they're working and focusing on their careers, not settling down.

> The dollar's buying power is less than what it was 20 years ago, meaning what you earn doesn't stretch as far as it once did. Government statistics show that while household income has been steadily increasing, it has failed to keep up with the pace of inflation. In addition, the cost of buying items like houses and automobiles has increased at a rate that outpaces the rise in inflation.

- From the BLS

So let's be clear - it costs way more now to buy a house and a car. You need to spend 4 years not working (and not saving) and going to school to make an OK salary while taking on tens of thousands of debt (avg debt is 30k). Healthcare is extremely expensive. Computers are replacing more and more tasks. And what about people who aren't smart enough for engineering school? Which is most?

Costs are rapidly outpacing gains for the common man. And we're surprised people are anxious and don't want to marry and have wanton sex all the time? They can barely pay the bills.
Just to add to that, sometimes the redundancy doesn't work out as planned, maybe another weird set of circumstances, or some routers can't handle spikes in load as the network reconverges, causing other reconverges, confusing bgp routing peers, etc. Fun stuff!

Whether intentional or not, it's also great word-of-mouth advertising. My preexisting experience with Backblaze's hard drive stats reporting definitely worked positively in their favor when I was looking for a new backup service.
This is the only reply to my question that makes sense, thanks!

All of the other replies are subjective.
Yep, these exist as alternatives as of now, but require an explicit payment step which might cause more friction than ads.

I think a service that allows for website usage based payments, a Spotify/Apple News for websites would be interesting. I can see a decentralized crypto application evolving around this usecase
Yeah, it doesn't make much sense. They already have the a context menu when you long press a tile. I don't know why they don't allow you to pin from there.

Note that the most natural way to sing or play a fretless instrument isn't exactly 12 tone equal temperament. For example, if you play a major triad C-E-G as consonantly as possible, the frequency ratios C:E:G will be 4:5:6, which means 386 cents for C-E and 316 for E-G, instead of 400 and 300. The difference is quite audible. So be careful telling people they're 15 cents sharp or flat, as it's actually what makes the thirds and sixths in classical music sound so sweet!
We wasted 20 years by trying to replace one form of brackets with the other (XML vs. JSON). WHATWG and the browser vendors are responsible for this. Just like for the fact that we still don't have a machine-readable web. FAANG crawls the structured schema.org metadata like nobody else can and profits from it, and the rest of use are left with the HTML5 and Javascript crap.

That's laughable. Half the population doesn't even think about this - they have other things to think about.
As someone who knows basically nothing about stocks, I still don't totally understand whether this is a situation where the WSB guys are going to be left holding the bag, but at least they will have screwed over the short sellers and so it'll be worth it to them, or if they're actually going to come out way ahead? Like surely GME stock can't be worth 150 or whatever once this short squeeze business is done with. So what's the offramp look like?

I love this service, and use it every day. However, I think the limits are too scant.
can't comment on using a pi. i use an old intel i5 laptop with Linux Mint 20 and a Logitech K400 keyboard/touchpad remote ($25). I wouldn't bother with CEC because I dont need an integrated remote control when I have a keyboard/mouse.
The features that they paid for in the first year have already been paid for by the customers. While it costs the vendor time and money for new features it doesn't cost them money for old features. Therefore under a subscription model that payment should be covering the cost of new features.
Gnu parallel is another great one
ACH in the US is not simple to use. Companies that accept ACH payments are using a payment processor that comes with a fee (usually less than credit card fees); contractors aren't going to set that up. Consumer to consumer transfers built on ACH have increased in the last couple of years, but with low limits, inappropriate for contractors, and generally with terms of service prohibitting business use. It's easy to move money between my accounts with tools based on ACH, though. There's nowhere at my bank where I can say send $x to a routing number and account number, it takes a bunch of setup work.

Wire transfers are expensive here; my credit union which doesn't generally have high fees, charges $29 to send a wire (they don't charge for incomming wires, but some banks do). I've had some brokerages with free wires, but usually that's tied to a balance requirement or in connection with a company sponsored account (for stock based compensation or retirement accounts).
Have a look at the Dell offerings.

After long, long pressure from activists, PrEP is now covered by insurance in Europe (at least Germany). Same as the accompanying monthly(?) bloodwork for potential side effects (liver damage?), of course.
That requires you still have the original shell open that ran the earlier commands; nq doesn't appear to have that limitation.

Honestly I believe at this point it's partially inertia and brand recognition. In the past, when Linux support was more hit-or-miss, and the likes of Dell and Lenovo had no linux support, I think it made more sense.

More charitably, they do some work on custom firmware, and according to themselves, "work with" Clevo on making hardware decisions. What exactly that means seems vague to me, but again, charitably, System76+Clevo are at least trying to avoid problematic hardware, while Dell and Lenovo ... don't so much?
This has very little to do with HFT. I would argue that the person who wrote this Twitter thread really quickly veers off into the territory of just-plain-wrong. What's more likely,

- Citadel is paying multiple billions to get in on a firm that's so talented that they managed to take on this GME position, or

- Citadel is a market maker that has written a shitload of near-naked call options and now needs to deliver on them?

HFT is not the root of all evil. Citadel isn't making a killing off of frontrunning retail investors that have a Robinhood account containing $137. Odds are pretty damn good that they're in hot water with an options position and need to ensure that Melvin stays afloat to try and keep as many contract OTM as they can.
What's worse is the 35 Mbps upload.

When my internet went down a few weeks ago, I couldn't stream from my Plex server (Windows 10) to my Xbox One X on the same network. Not sure if that's due to Plex not having an online connection or because most everything Xbox dies when the internet goes out or Xbox Live goes down.

Hear hear. The only problem I’ve had was when I set it up on my router and my IKEA smart lights stopped responding after some 30 min or so. Turns out the gateway phones home and those calls were blocked, so for some reason or another the gateway just stopped responding to commands. Restarting it or resetting the network made it fly again, but only for the set time before it phoned home again. I was very disappointed by that, after having read some article here on HN arguing that IKEA had actually done IoT sort of right. Oh well.

Obviously not a NextDNS specific issue, it’d happen with anything that blocks the call, but just putting it out there for the next sucker that tries to google why their IKEA gateway suddenly stops responding.
I'm familiar with Le Guin's books and, while I like her writing, I don't think anarcho-syndicalism has any chance at being practical. I assume you refer to the anarchist colony believing to be free while depending on selling minerals to the mother country - which sees it as a mining colony. It's tricky whether to frame it as trade or taxes. What would happen if they stopped selling minerals to the mother country? Probably an invasion?

If you're interested in expanding your library on anarchy (jumping on the ancap side), I'd recommend David Friedman's The Machinery of Freedom (or its YouTube summary), which talks about the possible practicalities of running an anarcho-capitalist society.

Replying to your point: Companies solve large problems as well. They also compete with each other to provide a solution, providing more efficient solutions. Do you think the government could have come up with Google or Tesla?
I think the discriminating feature of a government is not large scale synchronisation but holding the monopoly on violence (and threats: if you don't pay a percentage of your profits, you'll be thrown in jail). Hopefully an anarchic society wouldn't be able to replicate that (thanks to the balance of multiple Rights Enforcement Agencies (as Friedman call them)).

In an anarcho-capitalist society you're likely going to end up with different companies providing protection and health care - and insurances on top. Not having a single defining law but multiple contracts (that can be arbitrated in private courts) could give people the flexibility to live closer to their ideal rules. You don't like your health care? Look for another provider.

The choice is in the hands of the consumers.

I don't understand what Europe is trying to be, if not another USA. The USA went from being a minarchist federation to the largest employer in the world, charging taxes as high as Europe to all its citizens. If that's not moving toward socialism, I don't know what it is.

The pains felt by the UK are:
- More VAT import taxes levied by its Government
- More bureaucracy with the flow of goods and people imposed by EU and the UK

I sincerely hate both with a passion and I think they have no space in society - with any country: I see your point, things actually got worse in that regard and Brexit will make trade worse and more expensive between UK and EU.

Still, if that's the price to pay to avoid greater redistributive European policies (like the 750bln€ for Covid affected countries), I think that's the lesser evil.
Is this satire? Have you noticed that the richest companies in the world are tech companies?
I think what you are referring to is "temperment", and a TLDR version of that topic would be that for tuning a piano so that it can sound in tune no matter what key, it is tuned to be evenly out of tune everywhere, aka, "equal temperment". This little app follows equal temperment. A string player playing unaccompanied solo might tend to play in a way that sounds better, aka, "just temperment", and so would seem to be out of tune according to this tool.

The basic reason is the UPS trucking is unionized and its LTL competitors are mostly NOT unionized. This basically resulted in UPS trucking having higher costs than its competitors. So it ended up not being profitable.
Open sourcing it is good, but without a formal successor it looks like the community will need to settle on a given fork for future development.
